Green & Co.'S report on cotton futures says:
market for cotton options. The Financial
Chronicles report of crop conditions, showing
rather unfavorahle features, went abroad this
morning, and had stimulating effect on lead
ing Manchester spinners to purchase fall months
in Liverpool, and the latter in turn became
moderate buyer on our market, Ihls started
the local covering desire, and altogether led to
good demand, on which 700 points gain in price
was made, with a firm closing at about the
highest figures of the day. Spot continues scarce
and firm. ="

CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-After the first few sales
In the speculative grains this morning prices
became very steady, with All easier tendency |
The disposition to trade was not very pro |
nounced, and the bulk of operators were In the |
way of settling up trades in readiness for next
week. The visible supply statement showed |
there was very little in the situation to make |
the market on. There was a very decided de- |
preston in the wheat pit early in the session |
There vas the usual Saturday clearing, but |
toward the close there was no interest whatever |
taken in the market The large receipts antlcl |
pated next week was the depressing element |
September wheat opened at G9c, lost tsc, con- |
tinued steady at 685ac during the greater part |
of the session and closed at Csc. Corn exhibited
only a moderate degree of activity to-day. The |
market was governed by local influence largely, |
no outside news of Importance being received. |
The market opened shade easi er than yestcr- |
day closed at 4116c for September was easy for |
a time, then advanced SIC under fair local in |
quiry. prominent local operator bought |
quite freely. Later the offerings became more |
LIBERAL influenced mainly by prospects OF |
larger receipts the ensuing week. 555 cars being |
estimated for Monday, and the prices declined |
asdl15c, ruled steady and closed about Ac lower |
than yesterday at 405sGt41c for september. May |
closed at ii14c. Oats were rather SLOW ana |
weak market prevailed all around. Future de |
lveries did not absorb much attention and there |
was about &c decline In the speculative market. |
Cash oats were about nominal. Seller Septem-
Der opened at 243Ic and closed at 24ssc. May |
closed at 30l5Gl30ssc, Provisions We're slow Ill |
a speculative way but shipping business was
largeand the aggregate shipments for the West
heavy anu stocks were considerably |
reduced With such an outward movement for !
speculation argued that the market should do
better, but it Is a legitimate one with no specu-
lation and responds slowly to the ordinary in
huences The feeling was easy and prices |
ranged lower, but declines were only 2ysGl5c.
